[Atrix 4G Android Development] xyrovice:
I'm actually not all that well versed in the carrier specific differences.

I would unfreeze everything at this point and do a reboot, maybe even a couple. If you get an image (it works again) maybe freeze two or three things at a time (rebooting each time; yes, I know it's a pain in the ass). Once you reboot and find it doesn't work, look back at the last couple of things you froze and test each one individually to see which of the two affects the webtop.

At the same time (and this is where it gets really frustrating), sometimes freezing multiple elements in combination is what messes a feature up. So, if you have the time and patience (and strong desire to get the webtop working with as many other things frozen as possible), it may be a process of unfreezing certain things you might believe are linked to the webtop functionality.

A healthy compromise might be freezing all the obvious bloatware app type elements and maybe a couple of the more obvious bloatware system processes, but leaving some of the more mysterious/enigmatic/convoluted processes and elements alone, as they might be the ones somehow affecting webtop functionality.

As well (and I'm sure this goes without saying), anything related to media functions, webtop functions, and display functions should be left alone.

Worst comes to worst, I'd do a factory reset.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] 7210:
Thanks for the tip! i just did that and its working again, the only thing i froze is the syncml, i'm gonna go play around with it and see what other things i can freeze and have the laptop dock functioning as well!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xyrovice:
Awesome. Glad to hear it, and glad I could be of some help. Have fun!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sunshine1982:
Since we don't currently have a ROM of 2.3.4 that has all the bloatware already removed, would it be possible for someone to update this to show whats safe to FREEZE on 2.3.4
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Vangelis13:
You can freeze the old list - at least that to start with
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rozzco:
Thanks for the new additions mramirezusa . ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sunshine1982:
ok, so i froze everything that mramirezusa listed, but i have a few more that i'm wondering if they can be frozen. I wanna make sure they are safe to freeze before freezing them.

Bugs2Go 1.2 (no clue what its for or why I would use this)

Gallery 2.3.4 (I use Gallery3D, plus I don’t like the new gallery)

Motorola Dock Service 1.0 (don’t have a dock)

Just quick update about:

Corporate Syn Authenticator 2.3.4 (Need to be unfrozen so contacts work properly)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sunshine1982:
that fixed my contact FC issue, thx.

also found a few more things i'm wondering about freezing:

Music Store

I don't know if this helps but u can use things like root app remover to take off the bloatware that general uninstallers don't let u remove. Obviously have to be rooted.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jarsh92:
Some people have suggested not to actually remove that stuff because you may accidentally remove something that is need for the OTA to install correctly. Basically its generally safer to just freeze the apps than to remove, if you are worried about being able to install the official updates.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mramirezusa:
BIG YES
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PAulyhoffman:
i had to defrost all authenticators to make contacts work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mramirezusa:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] scoob8000:
Bump for this. I've been wondering the same thing, but too lazy to post and ask. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Vangelis13:
It'd be amazing if someone could make a cwm flashable file to freeze the bloatware easily, I'm doing it manually every time now..

n Titanium Backup, once you are happy with your list of frozen apps, add a label to them such as "frozen" that way after you install a new rom and restore your apps, you can just filter by label and freeze them all
[Nook Color General] Atahachi:
Properly rooted NC running stock otherwise. Titanium Backup (pay version if that matters) is showing a Problem. When I click the Problem button it tells me to upgrade Superuser which I have done and BusyBox which I have done as well.

Any ideas on problem.
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
Do you have a FAT32-formatted SD card inserted?
[Nook Color General] Atahachi:
Yes. I was able to make a backup but the Problem button is still there and it's still telling me to install BusyBox despite it being installed.
[Nook Color General] KitF:
That "Problems?" button is ALWAYS there.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kontagious:
I downloaded The app ELIXIR to use for system information read outs and its stating that my mytouch4g on has 628MB of ram... arent these phones suppose to have 768MB of ram?

am i missing something here?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] athakur999:
Some of the ram is reserved for the gpu, radio, etc. There's 640 or so leftover for apps.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kontagious:
Ohhh ok gotcha, I just wasnt sure cause this is my 2nd my touch and from the system app my first my touch had a ton more available memory left over from everything the system ran (though I never ran elixir in the other phone) and this one has significantly less left over ram even at boot from a restart

does your mytouch say the same thing?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoneyjonez:
If you want to see how much space for apps, etc, go to settings, sd& phone storage, look at internal storage. You should have around 1.1GB after a reset.

I've never tried this elixer app but if I do "free" from the command line it says I have 642080k of total memory. This is about 628MB so I'd say we are showing the same thing.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ingressor:
Hi. In my past I had 7 nokia smartphones, then HTC touch diamond, now I have nexus one and what I noticed. When recording video on HTC Diamond and Nexus one in some brightness condition is a slow FPS. Manufacturer says about 30FPS for each dev, but

Diamond had 30FPS @ 352x288 in very bright ambience, but average 20-25FPS in normal and almost 15FPS in low-brightness.

The same history with Nexus one.Manufacturer says about 720x480@20FPS,but in the evening ambience it has only 15FPS max.

So, in comparison with Nokia N95,which had 640x480@30FPS STABLE,I checked that from bright to dark condition it was given 27-30FPS with max stability, no interruptions or glitches. The same was with N95 8GB, N93.

All these devices had hw-accelerated abilities to record HQ video at high framerate. They all have different mobile OS. So think this is not the feature of WM or Android. Also I noticed, that Nexus has better visibility in dark regions while recording than Nokia cameras. Okay. I took my sister's Nokia 5530. It has worse 3.2Mpix camera (worse in hw-resolution border and, as nokia says, module quality), but also with ability recording VGA video at 30FPS. That Nokia has low2mid-end Freescale 474MHz processor. Nexus one has QSD with hw video coder. Tested Nexus and Nokia. Nokia made video much more smooth and stable, but in dark it had worse light-sensivity, so Nexus won in brightness, but loss in quality(this is another story with "cubes" and so on) and FPS.

I know many people thought about this moment. HTC made better brightness adaptation, but very much loss in FPS. Nokia made this better, they simply included "Night mode" option, which strongly decreases FPS for better sensivity. But as I said, in normal mode all i okay. Maybe Nokia has better camera-modules? Well, technically this moment must be independent of modules quality.

So let's discuss what's the deal. Generally, my question is "How override this effect?". Manufacturer points to 720x480 @ 20FPS for Nexus One, or 1280x720 with 20-25FPS for HTC Desire, so typical user is waiting for smooth picture anywhere. I wonder, there is no info about this in www.

Your knowledge and ideas.
[Nook Color General] Jgrimoldy:
My 4-week old rooted NC (1.1 / Autonooter 3.0) has been plugged into the BN charger for a few hours. The battery level shows 98% yet the LED on the BN charger is green, strongly suffesting that that's as far as it's going to go.

I've not let my NC get much below 40% battery level without recharging.

Anyone else seeing this behaviour? I realize that rechargable batteries have a finite life span, but I'd sort of like my NC to last me a couple of years.

Perhaps I should let the battery get below 10% before recharging...
[Nook Color General] EugeneKay:
There is no such thing as memory effect. Discharging your battery is the worst thing you can do for it. If it says 98% is the most it can do, then your battery statistics need to be wiped. You can get a more accurate mapping of % to charge level by doing a full charge to discharge cycle, but this leads to premature battery death, and I do not recommend it.

[Nook Color General] arda99:
Thats normal, the charger operates in low-current mode and will keep charging till it gets 100%. Let it plugged for another 1 hour and you should see the 100% full charge then.
[Nook Color General] faria:
You dear sir are correct, most devices have being doing that for awhile.

Even my pro2 and diamond would take 2 hours to get from 98% to100%.
[General Questions and Answers] GoldCylon:
Hey everyone. What a great site, and sorry if this isn't in the correct section, but I do need help with a program so here I am.

My idea or concept is to have a program that is not Java based that is Smart phone friendly (since iPhones aren't Java friendly) via a QR Code launch open a Panoramic 360 image. Via Gyro control, or finger mouse action in a seamless photo to see the hosted image. iTunes has a few capturing programs out there already, but unless you have purchased that program you can only view the image in a flat format. So what I am looking for is someone that can design a program that can take the flat images or captured 360, and stitch them together into a single 360 viewable image.

Below is a YouTube link of a program capturing the image.

Thanks for any help or insight.

is there anyway to install the stock reader from nook color on froyo?. i tried to move the apks to the data/app directory but did not load the library
[Nook Color General] phirephotog:
Id be interested in this as well.

sent from my nootered nook color
[Nook Color General] Mr_Armageddon:
Not having the stock reader is the only thing holding me back from using Froyo or HC on my NookColor (I have tried both, but ended up going back to a rooted 2.1). I need the stock reader since it is the only one that can open the "Read to Me" Children's books. My daughter would not be happy if I removed that feature from "her" Nook.

I have read that the reason no one has done it yet is because the stock reader is B&N's software, therefore we can mess with it and distribute it on XDA. Hopefully someone can get a port over so we can fix this issue. Or just wait until B&N releases their 2.2 update for the NookColor.
[Epic 4G General] drplaud:
There was a brief thread on February 19 concerning the Android Market crashing. The person with the problem said he flashed a new ROM and that solved the problem. Well, I really am not a ROM flasher, so that won't help. I had the updated market, upgraded to EB13, and all was well. Then suddenly yesterday I started getting an error "market.proces.com.android.vending has stopped." I have cleared the cache and the app data, and when I do market can be accessed, the agreement to terms screen comes on, and after I agree, I get the market, but within a minute it will crash again with the same error.

I tried to reinstall the update.zip from the Samsung site, but it won't let me (presumably because I already updated to 2.2.1?). So what do I do? Is my only option a factory reset? And if so how can I backup all my data and apps. I am rooted, and do have MyBackup Pro, but it too is giving me problems, crashing at various points as I try to backup my data. I hope someone out there can help. Thanks.

Update: I did do a hard reset, after managing to have MyBackup Pro backup my data and apps. I got into the Market after signing on, and re-downloaded MyBackup Pro -- but then the ERROR started again, "market.proces.com.android.vending has stopped." WTF?
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
You can always try to Odin eb13 to a fresh install and see if that works.
[Epic 4G General] drplaud:

[HTC Aria General] blognc:
I've been on Windows Mobile for years, but my wife has been using the Aria the last few months. I just updated her phone to the latest Stock ROM (trying to keep things simple), and I'm kind of shocked that after re-syncing it with her Gmail account, none of her contact synced! I have very little Android experience, but I kind of figured that, synced all this time to a Gmail account, her phone would have saved all of her contacts there, and not just on the device's internal memory.

Before installing the ROM, I backed up call logs and some apps with Astro, but I didn't think I'd need the Contacts or her email accounts, stuff like that. Did I just wipe her address book, or are they supposed to be saved somewhere out there?
[HTC Aria General] jeebuz:
You sure they were saved to Google's servers? Syncing only saves your contacts if they are linked to your GMail account. They won't save if you saved them to Phone or SIM (although they will still be saved on the SIM, unless that was wiped too).
[HTC Aria General] blognc:
At this point, I'm sure they weren't saved to Google's servers. I'm so surprised that Google, who automatically adds people to your Gmail contact list if you email them a few times, and tightly integrates the phone with a Gmail account, wouldn't automatically back up all phone contacts without specifically asking you to your Gmail account. My Windows Mobile phone contacts don't ask me if I want to save them to Exchange; they just do.

Since when does Microsoft "just work"? And Google doesn't?
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
Did you check her Google account to see if the contacts are saved there? If they are then you should still be able to sync them. If they're not then unless you did a nandroud they're gone. If you did a nandroid them you can just nandroid her current setup and restore the old nandroid, sync her contacts, and then reflash back to the current setup.
[HTC Aria General] blognc:
They're definitely not in her Google Account. And I installed the latest Stock ROM, which I'm told cannot be rolled back, unless someone's cracked that yet.
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
Oh yea, no you're stuck then. I misunderstood, i thought you meant stock as in Liberated.

Hello all,

I'm sorry if this has been already discussed and solved. I spent about 3-4 hours looking for a stock recovery (PC36IMG.ZIP) for 3.70.651.1. I haven't had any luck.:(

If someone could help me I will be super ecstatic. Thanks ahead.:D

I'm trying to restore my evo back to complete stock after using unrevoked forever. I used the RUU and got everything back to stock. But when I go into the recovery I get a picture of an evo with a big "X".

How and where do I get the stock recovery image? How do I apply it? (Do I just place it on root?):confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] debarron:
Not the right section to be posting this Q since there is a Q & A section, but to answer your question that is the stock recovery.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] debarron:
When you run the RUU everything gets set back to Stock on the exception of your S-ON/S-OFF status in which case you just flash the unrevoked-forever-son.zip.
[Atrix 4G General] edgeicator:
So has anyone been able to get a re-encoded video to playback on their atrix? I've been trying every setting I know of, but mvideoplayer says that my phone doesn't support any of them. I've been mostly trying variations of weightb=0:bframes=0:cabac=0:weightp=0:8x8dct=0, which should be baseline H264, but my phone refuses to play it. All my files are being reencoded at 720p, which should be supported, in an mkv container, which according to motorola, should be supported.
[Atrix 4G General] Exador:
I'm going to do some tests and get back to you on this.
[Atrix 4G General] hotleadsingerguy:
If you encode in FFmpeg the videos work fine. Even encoding 1080p videos in FFmpeg works perfectly at 100% frame rate and sound in the videoplayer.

Download VitalPlayer and you can play even stuff the Atrix doesn't support. The framerate and video looks great but the sound will stutter occasionally because it's all software-decoding. Video even worked up to 1080p with software decoding...so that's a pretty big testament to the power of Tegra 2.
[Atrix 4G General] edgeicator:
My ultimate goal is to be able to play MKVs with high profile H264 and an embedded ASS subtitle file so that I can just drag and drop without having to deal with reencoding all my shows.
[Atrix 4G General] Sogarth:
Unfortunately, I think you're going to have to wait until the next generation of phones for that. iirc, Tegra 3 supports that, but I (and Wikipedia) might be wrong on that.

Right now, this is what I'm using (using MediaCoder because I'm a slacker and CUDA is fast and good enough for my needs):

x264/Baseline

Bitrate: Average/2048 Kbps

Level: Auto

B-Frames: 4

Dynamic GOP: on

CABAC: on

Deblocking: on

Resize: 800x480

I'd rather not do the resize (my source material in this case is 1280x720), but I haven't gotten video at 720p to keep up with the audio, even after dropping the bitrate to 1024 Kbps, B-frames to 2, and turning off dynamic GOP.

Anybody else have better luck?
[Atrix 4G General] Sogarth:
... The problem being that MediaCoder doesn't respect the "average bitrate" option very much, and it'll often generate files that have twice the "average bitrate" specified.

I've now started poking at Badaboom, which is able to generate 960x540 files (at which MediaCoder couldn't generate working files, for whatever reason). And, for that matter, it can generate 1280x720 files that the Atrix can play just fine (hey, closed source is good for something after all!). The settings I'm using at the moment:

Video Encoder:

Profile: Baseline

Key Frame Mode: Auto

Level: Auto

Rate Control Select: VBR

Bitrate is 2460kbit

Picture Settings:

Display Res: 1280x720
[Atrix 4G General] hotleadsingerguy:
Only problems with Badaboom is that it only works with NVidia cards (fine with me...I own the program and use it frequently) and NVidia updates the program about once a year. The support for Badaboom is horrendous.
[Atrix 4G General] Sogarth:
True, there are the restrictions on it, but I was really just pointing out that it's possible to get h.264 videos working on it.

And minor quibble: NVIDIA's not responsible for updates to it. Elemental is. :p

1024x576 (same settings as above) not so much.

Gonna play with the profiles and such to find what works well...
[Atrix 4G General] SS2006:
Is this on badaboom?

I chose a mere 1000kbps, with 960x540 (apple TV profile)

and i get an error playing (rock player plays it fine tho)
[Atrix 4G General] SS2006:
that was the settings recomended by bababoom site

but i think they screwed up cause apple tv uses main profile

i think tegra 2 is baseline (what i understood from xoom)

and yup just tried with galaxy S preset (baseline), change size to 1280x720

bitrate 3500kbps, sweet sweet 720p on my atrix :)
[Atrix 4G General] SS2006:
1920x1080p

10mbps also worked

Use chainfires app to check for bootloaders. Remove the bootloaders using his app if you have them. Read the thread before you use his app and understand the risks involved although no one has bricked their tabs by using his app. Then check your root again.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethformybodom:
no i didnt backup, i thought i did but apparently i didint.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EdKeys:
He's right, that kernel is not compatible with the stock ROM. The best thing to do now is to take out the sd card and put it in a card reader. You just need to download a custom ROM to it so you can flash it. I think if you try to do a factory reset your phone will lose root, but I could be wrong. If you want to return to a stock ROM, search the forums. There are stock ROMs that have been "rooted" so to say. This may have been a blessing in disguise because custom ROMs blow away stock!
